Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-properties-values-api-1] Figure out what to do with font-relative lengths (#9517)

The CSS Working Group just discussed `[css-properties-values-api-1] Figure out what to do with font-relative lengths`.

<details><summary>The full IRC log of that discussion</summary>
&lt;JoshT> TabAtkins: the deal here is that if you have registered custom properties. we resolve unit math.<br>
&lt;JoshT> ... if you have an em, this now depends on the font-size property<br>
&lt;JoshT> ... I have proposal to add constaints to length type custom properties<br>
&lt;fantasai> what constraints?<br>
&lt;JoshT> ... not yet complete. number typed ones could also get this from algebra<br>
&lt;JoshT> ... this doesn't require any resolutions<br>
&lt;JoshT> ... I need to a: extend this to apply to all typed custom properties<br>
&lt;JoshT> ... b: reqrite to use the new dependency mapping property that is in all the new CSS specs<br>
&lt;JoshT> ... will just be a mechanical transform, but I think there's a solution. just need to take care of it now<br>
&lt;JoshT> fantasai: I don't understand why it was brought up to the WG<br>
&lt;fantasai> s/WG/WG if not going to even explain what we're doing/<br>
&lt;JoshT> TabAtkins: was brought up by oriall. I'm just acknowledging that it is being worked on<br>
&lt;TabAtkins> s/oriall/oriol/<br>
&lt;oriol> I didn't remember adding this to agenda, happy to wait for Tab's edits<br>
&lt;fantasai> ok, that was a really long way to say "let's take this off the agenda until futher work"<br>
&lt;JoshT> astearns: so we'll take it off the agenda and keep the issue open. will bring it back when Tab has done some work<br>
